Details

If a user has chosen "Check for updates, but let you choose when to install them", then we should apply that same logic to rollouts. This setting in about:preferences corresponds to app.update.auto. When that pref is false, the user wants to be prompted for updates.

We should prepare a list of unapplied rollouts or updates to rollouts. For those, we should provide some UI notification that the user has pending updates. One idea for a UI that could work is the existing extension permission updates that show up in the hamburger menu. We should probably consult with Firefox UX before deciding anything here.

Once the user has approved the updates, we should apply them immediately.
